Setlist predictions / dreams / wishes for 2016

[budmaster]

If Axl is reading, I am the guy that kept posting on your Twitter that I would let you snort cocaine out of my 19 year old girlfriend's asshole if you get the original line up back together.

So, I guess I owe you.

Please contact me to put me on guest list and I'll have her and some of the finest peruvian flake ready to be snorted at Coachella.

Thanks. 

that the funniest thing I've read for a while! Good luck m8

It would be cool if they did a couple of the VR songs. I've always wondered what they would have sounded like with Axl doing the vocals.

lol @ Shackler's Revenge.

i seriously doubt there will be anything from CD. i bet it's appetite heavy mixed with the hits from uyi( November rain, dont cry, estranged,knockin maybe civil war. you gotta remember its a festival not a full gnr show as well

way too many non gnr songs... (old gnr)

Too many CD songs on that set. I'd be somewhat bummed out if that is anything close to what they play.

24 songs is the ballpark I think for songs. 8 Appetite, 10 UYI, 2 covers and 4 cd songs

agreed with Thorned. My wish setlist would be: 8 Appetite, 10 UYI, 2-4 Lies & maybe 2 CD songs

awesome man. makes me feel like I"m not the only one who thinks these morons wanting like 6-8 CD songs are crazy

Either you stop with the insults or you don't post here. Your choice.
Getting tired of the people who suddenly showed up, insulting other fans because they prefer different songs.

Good to know im not the only one who always imagined Axl singing this song! For me its pure old school GNR and could easily fit AFD!!!

I'm with you!!!! 100%!! most people lack fantasy. a lot might also stem from the fact that Axl reportedly refused Snakepit 95 songs and Slash quit the band. from there on Slash couldn't write anymore...

If they did a tribute to Scott, I would hope that they would do

Memories of Candles and Incense.

It is a beautiful masterpiece. Even though it isn't a VR / GNR song.

Jarmo it was used in light humor. I don't really think anyone is a moron or anything. Sorry dude.

This is a reunion tour, and a lot of people are wanting a good amount of CD songs. Which makes little sense to me. I didn't intend to insult anyone. Sorry. And I've been a member here for 12 years. Just came out of the woodwork with the great recent news.

[AXLRIVERS]

This getting ridiculous....

And you are not alone.  Way more people here lately than have been here the past few years.

You just have to read the room.  There a higher contingent of GNR fans than anywhere else that has real fear that people will just try and pretend the past 15 years never happened.  And they are going to push back on that - HARD.

I happen to agree with you, but you just have to watch how your phrase it as to not ruffle feathers. 

Take it from me.  I am basically an expert on coloring within the lines around here.  Ask anyone.

I think it is possible that there will be 2 or songs from CD. I w?uldn?t bet on it but I wouldn?t be surprised if that happens. I don?t think people want more from CD. They just hope for it. The reality is that in the last couple of years we only have very few songs. And that was the new band performing. Now that there is some kind of reunion is even less likely.

I see 2 problems.

I think people that truly invested in the new band will be disappointed.

But I think that disappointment turns to anger when they see people outright cheering their exclusion.

I don't think it happens, I don't think its needed...but I'm not outright opposed.  And I'm sure not going to dance on graves if it, in fact, does not come to be.

It will depend on the line up. If we see Richard, Frank and Pitman then chances are they will play a couple of CD songs. If on the other hand we see Izzy, Sorum or Adler then most likely they won?t.

Coachella is a festival. I wouldn't expect a lot of "deep cuts".

I don't even know how long the sets are supposed to be. They cut the power in the past when artists were playing too long.

Welcome To The Jungle, It's So Easy, Mr. Brownstone, Live And Let Die, Rocket Queen, This I Love, Attitude, Raw Power, Estranged, Sweet Child Of Mine, You Could Be Mine, November Rain, Civil War, Street Of Dreams, Nightrain, Yesterdays, Knockin' On Heaven's Door
Encore: My Michelle, Don't Cry, Patience, Paradise City

I would be disappointed if I went to this show and they played anything under 22 songs or something.

They have to go 8 deep on AFD, and AT LEAST 8 on UYI. I do want to hear 2-4 CD songs, and maybe 1 or 2 covers.

They should stay off TSI unless its Down on a Farm or Ain't It Fun

[patcooper]

i know last year acdc did 20 songs

[pilferk]

History says they get about 2 to 2.5 hours for their set at Coachella (AC/DC was scheduled for 2.5 last year, drake was about 2 hours and 45 min).  Coachella won't let them go very long past 12:45 AM...too expensive to blow the hard line 1 AM curfew by that much. 20k for the first 5 min past...then a grand a minute after that.

Figure that's going to be right around 20 songs.

Once they're on their own tour, that'll probably change, and the setlist will expand a bit.
